For example, when attaching the receiver 69 to the fifth bracket 109, the receiver 69 can be easily attached by placing it on the bar.

[0074] The rear side cover 66 is supported by the swivel frame via a hinge device at the front part, and the rear part is swingable in the machine width direction K2 with the front part as a fulcrum. By swinging the rear side cover 66 in the machine width direction K2, the arrangement side 56 (see FIG. 12) of the cooling system equipment (cooling system equipment unit 27) can be opened and closed. By opening the rear side cover 66, it is possible to access the cooling system equipment constituting the cooling system equipment unit 27 (the cooling system equipment can be inspected). By making the shroud 57 and each cooling system equipment detachable from the outside (right side) in the machine width direction on the partition plate 39, maintenance, replacement, etc. of the shroud 57 and each cooling system equipment can be easily performed.

[0075] As shown in Fig. 22, the shroud 57 and the cooling system equipment unit 27 can be assembled to the swivel frame 19 (airframe 2) in a state of being assembled to the partition plate 39. Specifically, first, an assembly 112 formed by assembling the shroud 57 and the cooling system equipment unit 27 to the partition plate 39 is lifted by a hoisting device or the like using the above-described slings 89 and 98, and is lowered near the right side of the support frame 31 from above, and the assembly 112 is placed on the swivel board 15. Next, the main plate portion 60 of the partition plate 39 is attached to the support frame 31 and the lower wall portion 61 is attached to the swivel board 15 (see Fig. 3).

[0076] As shown in Fig. 22, an opening 113 is formed in the upper and front portions of the partition plate 39, penetrating the partition plate 39 in the airframe width direction K2. This opening 113 is necessary for tightening the bolt 114 (see Fig. 23) and passing the routing member 115 (see Fig. 24) when the assembly 112 is mounted on the airframe 2.

[0077] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 23, in which the shroud 57, the cooling system equipment unit 27, etc. are omitted for illustration, by forming the above-described opening 113, after the assembly 112 is assembled to the swivel frame 19, the bolt 114 arranged on the left side of the partition plate 39 can be tightened from the right side of the partition plate 39 through the opening 113. In this case, for example, there is a case where the bolt 114 for attaching the holder 117 that holds the air conditioner hose 116 of the air conditioning system (air conditioner) equipped on the work machine 1 is tightened.

[0078] Also, as shown in FIG. 24 where the shroud 57, the cooling system equipment unit 27, etc. are omitted, by forming the above-mentioned opening 113, after assembling the assembly 112 to the swivel frame 19, a duct member (duct member) 115 that is routed from the left side (prime mover 23 side) to the right side of the partition plate 39 through the partition plate 39 can be passed through. In this case, for example, a duct member 115 for guiding air from an air cleaner 118 that purifies the air supplied to the prime mover 23 to the prime mover 23 may be connected to the air cleaner 118 through the opening 113. After the partition plate 39 is attached to the support frame 31 and the swivel substrate 15, the air cleaner 118 is arranged on the right side of the partition plate 39 and attached to a bracket 119 attached to the support frame 31. Therefore, after the partition plate 39 is attached to the support frame 31 and the swivel substrate 15, it is necessary to route the duct member 115 from the left side (prime mover 23 side) of the partition plate 39 to the air cleaner 118.

[0079] As shown in FIG. 25, after tightening the bolt 114 and then arranging the duct member 115, a closing structure 120 that closes the opening 113 with the duct member 115 passed through the opening 113 is attached to the opening 113. The closing structure 120 has a plurality of seal members 121A and 121B that are in close contact with each other and seal. The plurality of seal members 121A and 121B are in close contact with each other in the direction along the plate surface of the partition plate 39.

[0080] Next, the closing structure 120 will be described in detail.

[0081] The closing structure 120 has a divided structure divided into a plurality of parts. In the present embodiment, the closing structure 120 is divided into two parts, a first divided body 120A and a second divided body 120B. However, it is not limited to this, and the closing structure 120 may be divided into three or more parts.

[0082]

[0083] ​As shown in FIG. 25, the first divided body 120A is composed of a first plate member 122A and a first seal member (seal member) 121A. As shown in FIGS. 26, 27, and 28, a groove 123A is formed in the first seal member 121A, and the first seal member 121A is attached to the first plate member 122A by inserting the first plate member 122A into the groove 123A. The first plate member 122A is attached to the partition plate 39 by bolts or the like.

[0084] As shown in FIG. 25, the second divided body 120B is composed of a second plate member 122B and a second seal member (seal member) 121B. As shown in FIGS. 26, 27, and 28, a groove 123B is formed in the second seal member 121B, and the second seal member 121B is attached to the second plate member 122B by inserting the second plate member 122B into the groove 123B. The second plate member 122B is attached to the partition plate 39 by bolts or the like.

[0085] The first plate member 122A and the second plate member 122B are formed of a metal plate material. The first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B are formed of an elastic member such as rubber.

[0086] As shown in FIGS. 27 and 28, the first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B are in contact (adhered) with each other in a butted state, thereby sealing the space between the first divided body 120A and the second divided body 120B. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 25 and 27, the portions 124 extending in the vertical direction at the front of the first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B are in contact with each other in the front-rear direction K1. The portions 125 extending in the front-rear direction at the front and rear of the first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B are in contact with each other in the vertical direction.

[0087] According to the above-described closing structure 120, with the duct member 115 inserted into the opening 113, for example, the first divided body 120A is attached to the partition plate 39, and then the second divided body 120B is brought close to the first divided body 120A from below and abutted against the first divided body 120A, and the second divided body 120B is attached to the partition plate 39. Or, with the duct member 115 inserted into the opening 113, the second divided body 120B is attached to the partition plate 39, and then the first divided body 120A is brought close to the second divided body 120B from above and abutted against the second divided body 120B, and the first divided body 120A is attached to the partition plate 39.

[0088] As shown in FIG. 25, the closing structure 120 has a seal portion 128 in the middle portion in the front-rear direction K1. The seal portion 128 contacts the periphery of the duct member 115 inserted into the opening 113 and seals the periphery of the duct member 115.

[0090] As shown in FIG. 26, the first portion 128A and the second portion 128B are formed thinner than the first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B so as to absorb the mounting error and tolerance of the duct member 115 (so as to be easily elastically deformed).

[0091] As shown in FIG. 29, at the upper end portions of the front parts of the first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B, notches 127 are formed on the left side of the closing structure 120 so that the first plate member 122A and the second plate abut against the partition plate 39. Also, at the rear end portions of the first seal member 121A and the second seal member 121B, notches 126 are formed on the left side of the closing structure 120 so that the first plate member 122A and the second plate abut against the partition plate 39.

[0092] As shown in FIG. 22, a fan cover 129 that covers the cooling fan 29 is attached to the support frame 31. The fan cover 129 is formed of a plate material. As shown in FIG. 30, the fan cover 129 is disposed on the side (left side) of the rear leg (leg body) 45 of the support frame 31. As shown in FIGS. 30 and 31, the fan cover 129 includes a first cover 130 and a second cover 131 formed separately from the first cover 130.

[0105] As shown in FIGS. 32 and 33, on the side where the cooling fan 29 of the prime mover 23 is disposed, a compressor (first driven machine) 135 and an alternator (second driven machine) 136 driven by the power of the prime mover 23 are disposed. The compressor 135 is a device that constitutes a part of an air conditioning system (air conditioner) equipped on the work machine, and compresses a refrigerant (air conditioner gas) into a semi-liquid state. The alternator 136 outputs DC power, and can be used as a DC power source or enable power storage in the battery 28.

[0106] As shown in FIGS. 32 and 33, the compressor 135 is disposed to the left of the cooling fan 29. Further, the compressor 135 is disposed above the rear part of the cooling fan 29. The alternator 136 is disposed with a positional shift downward and rearward with respect to the compressor 135.

[0107] The first cover 130 is disposed at a position covering the compressor 135. The second cover 131 is disposed at a position covering the alternator 136.

[0108] The compressor 135 is driven by the first transmission mechanism 137. The alternator 136 is driven by the second transmission mechanism 138. The first transmission mechanism 137 and the second transmission mechanism 138 are constituted by a belt drive mechanism or the like.

[0109] As shown in FIG. 32, an output shaft 139 for outputting the power of the prime mover 23 is provided at the lower part of the right part of the prime mover 23. As shown in FIGS. 32 and 33, a drive pulley 140 is integrally rotatably attached to the output shaft 139. Above the drive pulley 140, a fan pulley 141 that rotates integrally with the cooling fan 29 is disposed.

[0110] As shown in FIGS. 32 and 33, the first transmission mechanism 137 includes a drive pulley 140, a first transmission pulley 142, a guide pulley 144, and a first belt 145. The first transmission pulley 142 is disposed obliquely upward and rearward of the fan pulley 141. The first transmission pulley 142 is attached to the right side (input shaft) of the compressor 135. The guide pulley 144 is disposed obliquely upward and forward of the fan pulley 141. The first belt 145 is formed in an endless shape and is wound around the drive pulley 140, the first transmission pulley 142, and the guide pulley 144. The power of the prime mover 23 is transmitted from the drive pulley 140 to the first transmission pulley 142 via the first belt 145. The compressor 135 is driven by the first transmission pulley 142.

[0111] As shown in FIGS. 32 and 33, the second transmission mechanism 138 includes a drive pulley 140, a fan pulley 141, a second transmission pulley 143, and a second belt 146. The second transmission pulley 143 is disposed on the rear side of the fan pulley 141. The second transmission pulley 143 is disposed offset downward and rearward with respect to the first transmission pulley 142. Also the second transmission pulley 143 is disposed offset in the machine width direction K2 (leftward) with respect to the first transmission pulley 142. The second transmission pulley 143 is attached to the right side (input shaft) of the alternator 136. The second belt 146 is formed in an endless shape and wound around the drive pulley 140, the second transmission pulley 143, and the fan pulley 141. The power of the prime mover 23 is transmitted from the drive pulley 140 to the second transmission pulley 143 via the second belt 146. The alternator 136 is driven by the second transmission pulley 143.

[0112] The first transmission pulley 142 is a first drive unit that receives the power from the prime mover 23 and drives the compressor (first driven machine) 135. The second transmission pulley 143 is a second drive unit that receives the power from the prime mover 23 and drives the alternator (second driven machine) 136.

[0113] As shown in FIGS. 33 and 34, the first cover 130 covers the first transmission pulley (first drive unit) 142. The second cover 131 covers the second transmission pulley (second drive unit) 143. Since the first cover 130 is open toward the prime mover 23 side, it is not necessary to cover the entire rear of the compressor 135, and it can be formed compactly. Since the second cover 131 is open toward the prime mover 23 side, it is not necessary to cover the entire rear of the alternator 136, and it can be formed compactly.

[0114] As described above, the first transmission pulley (first drive unit) 142 and the second transmission pulley (second drive unit) 143 are arranged with misalignment in the vertical direction, the machine width direction K2, and the longitudinal direction K1. When the cooling fan 29, the first transmission pulley 142, and the second transmission pulley 143 are covered with a fan cover 129 formed of a single member, the fan cover 129 is formed in a complex shape. By adopting a split structure in which the fan cover 129 is divided into a first cover 130 and a second cover 131, the shape of the fan cover 129 can be made simple without forming a complex shape, and the shape of the fan cover 129 can be simplified. Also, deterioration of the yield can be suppressed. Furthermore, even if the object covered by the fan cover 129 extends over a wide range, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of deflection in the fan cover 129 due to vibration.

[0115] As shown in FIG. 34, the partition plate (plate member) 39 is attached to the support frame 31 such that the shroud 57 is inserted from the side opposite to the fan cover 129 with respect to the support frame 31 in a state where the shroud 57 and the like (the shroud 57 and the cooling system equipment unit 27) are assembled.

[0116] As shown in FIG. 37, the fan cover 129 has a tank attachment member 148 to which a reserve tank 147 is attached. The reserve tank 147 is a tank for storing the coolant for the radiator 25. As shown in FIGS. 37 and 38, the tank attachment member 148 is attached to the first cover 130. Specifically, the tank attachment member 148 has a stay 148a fixed to the rear wall portion 131c of the first cover 130 and a fixture 148b fixed to the stay 148a. As shown in FIG. 38, an engagement recess 147a into which the fixture 148b fits is formed in the reserve tank 147. The reserve tank 147 is attached to the tank attachment member 148 by moving it downward so that the fixture 148b fits into the engagement recess 147a from above.

[0117] As shown in Fig. 39, the fan cover 129 has an indicator mounting member 150 to which an indicator 149 is attached. The indicator 149 provides a display related to the air cleaner 118. For example, the indicator 149 indicates the degree of dust clogging in the air cleaner 118. The indicator 149 is attached to a hose 151 connected to a duct member 115 that sends purified air from the air cleaner 118 to the prime mover 23. The indicator 149 has a mounting member 152 that is fixed to the indicator mounting member 150 by bolts.

[0118] By giving the fan cover 129 (the first cover 130) the function of a bracket for attaching the reserve tank 147 and the indicator 149, the structure can be simplified. Also, the reserve tank 147 and the indicator 149 can function as a protective member together with the fan cover 129 to prevent an operator from accidentally touching the cooling fan 29. Further, by attaching the reserve tank 147 and the indicator 149 to the fan cover 129 attached to the support frame 31, the strength as the above-mentioned protective member can be improved. The strength as the protective member can be improved.

[0119] As shown in Fig. 37, a guide rod 152 is fixed to the first cover 130. This guide rod 152 protects a hose routed from the radiator 25 above the intermediate wall portion 131b of the first cover 130 to the reserve tank 147 so that the hose does not contact the edge of the first cover 130.
